No. 17 Cotton Mill Shanghai Blues: Music of China(1984)

movie - first aired/released 1984-01-01

Directed by Jeremy Marre

This thought-provoking documentary examines the ancient musical traditions of China and the near-elimination of them during the Cultural Revolution of the 1980s. Among the subjects observed: one of the less than 100 Chinese citizens who can still play the traditional zither-like instrument known as the ququin, and a wild wedding celebration in Islamic northwest China.
